| Arik Milner eMission Impossible: Detecting Pollution with Laser Light
Division: | Sciences de la santé / Innovation environnementale | Catégorie: | Junior | Région: | Greater Vancouver | Ville: | Vancouver, BC | École: | Point Grey Secondary | Sommaire: | A prototype device that detects water pollution using laser light is built. It utilizes a physical principle of light scattering off small particles. A cheap webcam, controlled by computer, takes an image of scattered light. Software program analyzes the image and decides whether to trigger a pollution alarm. In the future, the device will be expanded to detect pollution in air and identify pollutants. |
